1/8/16 Battleground
Where is your front-line? Are you battling with depression, spiritual oppression, fear, anxiety and even rejection? Is everyday a struggle to even get out of bed, for the weight that you carry from your battle pack strapped over your shoulders pulls you down, you carry the weight of the world upon you.
I am not of this world, I have already won this war, and I carry the weight of your struggle. My beautiful one, it is not flesh and blood but powers and principalities, I have conquered death for eternal life.
Start this new day with the sun shining through the window of your life, feel the heat as it warms away the coldness of yesterday. Know that my love casts out all fear.
This is your new front-line and I am at the head of it.
(NIV) Ephesians 6: 11-13
Put on the full armour of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
(NIV) Romans 12: 1-2
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
(NIV) John 18: 36
Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.”
2/8/16 By My Hand
By my hand, I have created the artist, they see differently. The Spiritual artist can see kingdom within all that they draw or paint, each has a unique anointing to bring prophetic art into the hearts and homes of those who do not see as clearly as they do.
By my hand, I have created the dancers and the dance, my beloved call out in movement and colour, their flags and streamers of every colour wave and surge in celebration of kingdom life.
By my hand, I have created the worshipers, my sons and daughters raise their voices and bring song. They lift a sweet, sweet, perfume unto my throne.
By my hand, I have created the prayer warriors, the intercessors, those who stand in the gap for their nations and their loved ones, daily crying out the need of the many and yet they are so few.
By my hand, I created “YOU “.
(NIV) Jeremiah 31: 13-14
Then young women will dance and be glad,
young men and old as well.
I will turn their mourning into gladness;
I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow.
I will satisfy the priests with abundance,
and my people will be filled with my bounty,”
declares the Lord.
(NIV) John 4: 23-24
Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”
(NIV) Job 16: 20
My intercessor is my friend
as my eyes pour out tears to God;
(NIV) Romans 1: 19-20
since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
3/8/16 Accelerated season
Beloved this is a season of accelerated pace in all things, physical, emotional and spiritual. It is not a time to hold back and allow others to move ahead of you. Shake off all passivity, lethargy and apathy. Do not allow yesterdays failures to stop you moving forward into the plans I have for you. I chose you before the foundation of the world to be who you are, with all your unique gifts and talents.
This is a season where my remnant will rise to take their place in this world. They will be a people who are bold and courageous and they will do great exploits in and through me. Allow your inner core to remain focused on me. Shake off all that would hinder and arise to your call!
(NIV) Philippians 3:12-14
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: forgetting what is behind and straining towards what is ahead, I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenwards in Christ Jesus.
(NIV) Isaiah 52:1-2
Awake, awake, Zion,
clothe yourself with strength!
Put on your garments of splendour,
Jerusalem, the holy city.
The uncircumcised and defiled
will not enter you again.
Shake off your dust;
rise up, sit enthroned, Jerusalem.
Free yourself from the chains on your neck,
Daughter Zion, now a captive.
(NIV) Luke 1: 76-77
And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins.
4/8/16 Look Deeper
When you look out over the vast oceans of this world, you see water as far as the horizon. Some are cold and grey and others are blue, clear and warm. The waves can be mighty and angry and also calm and flat. But look deeper and your eyes will alight upon, the beauty of my creation.
Coral reefs teeming with fish of every colour, an abundance of life, even the corals are a garden of delight. Go deeper and you will see the might of the oceans, whales, sharks and the mighty shoals of the sail fish, the salmon and even the krill.
My beloved family as you look around this world you will see vast armies of religion, at times these look very unappetising and they hold your gaze at this surface level. Look deeper and see that there are millions of Kingdom citizens all over this world. They are in every country and they are as colourful and hungry for the more as you are. Open your Spiritual Eyes and see, you do not stand alone.
(NIV) Psalm 104: 24-25
How many are your works, Lord!
In wisdom you made them all;
the earth is full of your creatures.
There is the sea, vast and spacious,
teeming with creatures beyond number—
living things both large and small.
(NIV) Matthew 25: 33-35
He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,
(NIV) Ephesians 2: 18-20
For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.
5/8/16 Family
Each of my sons and daughters are the carriers of my sweet, sweet presence. Like the bee flitting from flower to flower to collect the pollen, and return to the hive, where it is transformed into the sweetest honey, to be eaten by the whole family.
You are called to carry my sweetness to the nations, to watch it transform the lives of the hungry.
You are my voice in the wilderness, my whisper upon the wind, sent out to bring the weary traveller home into the heart of my family.
(NIV) Song of Songs 4: 10-11
How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much more pleasing is your love than wine,
and the fragrance of your perfume
more than any spice!
Your lips drop sweetness as the honeycomb, my bride;
milk and honey are under your tongue.
The fragrance of your garments
is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
(NIV) Romans 10: 17-18
Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:
“Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.”
(NIV) Hebrews 2: 10-12
In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered. Both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters. He says,
“I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters;
in the assembly I will sing your praises.”
8/8/16 Rekindling
Has your fire waned, and grown cold during the night watch? Through the daily battles of this life has the flame turned to embers in your heart?
My beloved I call you to fan into flame that which I set within you, a flame of such intensity that all can feel its heat and know for whom it burns.
My Lord took my hand and led me to a large range fireplace; it was black in colour and had a metal chimney stack. The doors were black with soot, yet there was little heat emanating from the fire in the grate. I stood before it and watched as My Lord blew upon the coals and light flames began to dance across the embers and coals, as He continued to blow upon them, the flames began to grow, until there was a ` ROAR ` and flames shot out from the open door of the grate, the heat was so intense I had to move back from it. He closed the door, I began to sense the heat in the room begin to rise.
My beautiful bride,” I have released the breath of my Spirit upon the fire of your calling, tend it well.”
(NIV) 2 Timothy 1: 6-7
For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.
(NIV) Ephesians 4: 1-13
As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it. This is why it says:
“When he ascended on high,
he took many captives
and gave gifts to his people.”
(What does “he ascended” mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions? He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.) So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
9/8/16 I Anoint You
Even though you feel everything is weighing down upon you and that you are in above your head. I remind you my sons and daughters, that I am kneeling beside you with my hand outstretched. Take hold of me and I will lift you up and out of the places of oppression.
Watch as I wash away every stain of this world that has left its mark upon you. The dirt flows away as my living water flows down from the top of your head, to the base of your feet.
Stand as I anoint you, afresh with Holy Spirit, Fire and Power.
(NIV) Mark 9: 27
But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him to his feet, and he stood up.
(NIV) Hebrews 10: 22
let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.
(NIV) Hebrews 1: 7
In speaking of the angels he says,
“He makes his angels spirits,
and his servants flames of fire.”
10/8/16 Stand Strong
Stand tall, stand strong, stand united, stand in rank and file, stand an army created by my hand.
I have poured my living word into your hearts. I have saturated you with my Spirit. I have filled you with fire and power. You bubble over with my excess, pouring out of every part of your being, flowing like a river of living water, to touch those around you, that they will know my love for them.
I have released my breath into you; my Ruach gives life where there is no life.
(NIV) Ezekiel 37: 1-14
The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”
I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.”
Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.
Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’” So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.
Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’ Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’”
11/8/16 My Elect
My beloved, I have shod you and placed you upon the high mountain passes, where others fear to tread. I have given you the ability to be sure footed as you move between the ravines and sheer drops of this mountain realm. You will bound and leap with ease past the blockages that are set before you, as you jump with grace and agility between the wide expanses that others may fall into.
You have My calling upon you and you will reach heights and be privileged to see the wonders of My Kingdom that is set in place for My Elect.
(NIV) 2 Samuel 22: 33-35
It is God who arms me with strength
and keeps my way secure.
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer;
he causes me to stand on the heights.
He trains my hands for battle;
my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
(NIV) 2 Timothy 2: 10-11
Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.
Here is a trustworthy saying:
If we died with him,
we will also live with him;
12/8/16 Wisdom of Age
You are young and full of the energy that comes only in youth, everything in your life is done in a hurry, you worship hard and fast, you’re desperate to get out and about with all the other young ones. People see you coming from afar and some even cross the road to get out of the way, but nothing is going to stand in your way, for you walk with purpose and know full well your mission in this life.
My beloved I have called you out from the eons of time and renewed your strength and energy, the grave has no fear for you as each of you are eternal in my kingdom.
(NIV) Isaiah 40: 28-31
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
(NIV) Matthew 18: 2-4
He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
(NIV) 1 Corinthians 15: 54-55
When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
“Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”
15/8/16 A Product
I am not a product of man, that he can use me to sell his books and merchandise. I am Jesus of the living word, I am eternal, I am triumphant, I am every breath you take, I am all things, I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
Man has tried to make me into a product that he can manipulate and sell, religion has taken my name and created abomination after abomination, are you no better than the money lenders that I chased out of my father’s house.
My father’s house is a place of prayer, where my bride is being made ready for my arrival, she carries the very aroma of heaven, her beauty is such that none can compare. Her tenderness for the broken is known all over this earth, for she holds them up and pours my love over all their wounds.
My perfect, spotless, bride, “I come for you”.
(NIV) John 2: 14-16
In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!”
(NIV) Revelation 22: 12-14
“Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
“Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city.
(NIV) Song of Songs 4: 9-11
You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride;
you have stolen my heart
with one glance of your eyes,
with one jewel of your necklace.
How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much more pleasing is your love than wine,
and the fragrance of your perfume
more than any spice!
Your lips drop sweetness as the honeycomb, my bride;
milk and honey are under your tongue.
The fragrance of your garments
is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
16/8/16 Be Bold
I watch you my child as you come before me, you kneel respectfully, your head bowed, your eyes lowered. Before my throne you cower waiting for my displeasure, my anger for a sinner.
I sent my son, Jesus for you. He bore all your sin upon the cross in Calvary. He opened the way for you to attain eternal life. I hold no anger for you and I AM not displeased with you.
You are my family, my son, my daughter. I want you to run into my throne room with boldness, I want you to run into my arms for I delight in you. I want everyone to see the love of a father for his children for you are all my children.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 5:18-20
All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.
(NIV) 1 John 3: 1-3
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.
(NIV) 1 John 4: 17-19
This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
We love because he first loved us.

17/8/16 “Here I am, use me”
How many times have you released these words to the throne of grace? You cry out during the night watch saying, “Here I am, here I am”.
I hear your words, are you ready to pay the price? Will you serve me with all that you are, all of your mind, all of your courage, all of your finance, even to your last breath upon this earth? Will you go where I lead you, even if it’s not where you want to go? Will you leave those whom you love behind?
Will you stand up for the abused, for the hurt, for the used? Will you be their voice? Will you feed the hungry, wash their feet, and clothe them?
Will you hold them when they cry? Will you?
“Here I am”.
(NIV) Isaiah 6:1-8
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory.”
At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.
“Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”
Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
(NIV) 1 Corinthians 1: 26-31
Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.”
18/8/16 Sculpture
As the mighty waves of the oceans sculpt the shoreline, I have sculpted you. With each wave removing more, until you are ready for my plan and purpose to be opened up before you. Like the hands of the potter shaping and re-shaping until he is satisfied with the work of his hands.
You my beloved family have been made ready, I have prepared the way for you, and before you lies the open door, walk through with boldness, as you my sons and daughters carry my anointing to preach the good news and see the sick healed.
A fresh wave of my perfect love is washing over this world. Those who are hungry will enter into my rest and know that I am Lord.
(NIV) Isaiah 67: 8
Yet you, Lord, are our Father.
We are the clay, you are the potter;
we are all the work of your hand.
(NIV) Revelation 3: 7b-8a
What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.
(NIV) Hebrews 4: 1
Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it.
19/8/16 Decoys
My sons and daughters be aware of the enemy around you, he is trying to put decoys into your view to take your eyes off, of the path that I have set before you. These attacks will come in the form of family strife, friendships that seem to be in a place of conflict for no apparent reason, children being more unruly and even wilful in their actions and even in the way that they answer you. You are becoming more aware of your own frustration and rising anger in certain circumstances and even here you are being filled with condemnation for you know this is not who you are.
My beloved, condemnation comes from the enemy it is a decoy, it is a lie, to set a trap for my family. Look and see what is around you, forgive those who use you, who abuse you, pour love on your family and friends even when it hurts you to do so, love them beyond that human love, in spirit and truth, reach out with perfect love, in prayer and thanksgiving hold your children close for they need you to help guide them to the throne of grace.
(NIV) Ephesians 4:25-27
Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbour, for we are all members of one body. “In your anger do not sin”]: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.
(NIV) Romans 8:1-3
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh.
(NIV) Deuteronomy 11: 19-20
Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
(NIV) Proverbs 22: 6
Start children off on the way they should go,
and even when they are old they will not turn from it.
22/8/16 Against the Flow
A man paddled a canoe up river against the current. He struggled with the force of the flow against his canoe and strained into each stroke of the paddle. In front of him under the surface of the water was a flash of silver, as he looked closer he could make out thousands upon thousands of salmon par, moving down the river towards him. They swam all around his canoe, under it, all he could see was a river of fish. As they passed him and his canoe, he watched them continue downstream, towards the mouth of the river each one darting forward hungry for the freedom of the open sea.
The salmon had travelled from the source of the river as one body of fish, searching for that which filled every part of their being, the call of the open sea. When they arrived at the mouth of the river the salmon par began to separate from the shoal as they entered the open water of the sea and moved off into freedom, they travelled paths built into their generational lines from the very beginning of time.
My Sons and Daughters are you going through such a time, as you sense you are trying to row upriver against the flow, understand that there are those surrounding you who do not see, My chosen plan and purpose for you, as the salmon have a built in knowledge to return to the sea from the river of their birth. I have built into you the knowledge and imprinted it on your soul for you to flow in, my spirit and find your freedom in Me.
(NIV) Ephesians 4: 12-14
To equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
(NIV) Revelation 22: 1
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb
23/8/16 Camping out
Beloved you have settled into a way of life that was never meant for the long term. Just as Abram started on his journey with me, you have started out on your journey too. Just as I had much more for Abram, so I have much more for you. You have left the very comfortable lifestyle you had in order to answer my call on your life. It is like that of having left a warm cosy house and taken up a camping lifestyle, but now you have secured a Glamping lifestyle. You have started your journey, but you are now settled into another area of comfort.
I am calling you to embrace all that I have for you. This will require you to leave behind even more of those things that you are holding onto. Shed again the baggage of the past and take with you only the luggage that I will show you and you will experience life on the edge, that life that you were called for, that life of the pioneer pushing the boundaries of everyday living in me.
(NIV) Philippians 3:7-8
But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ,
(NIV) Mark 10:29-31
‘Truly I tell you,’ Jesus replied, ‘no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields – along with persecutions – and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.’
(NIV) 2 Peter 1: 10-11
Therefore, my brothers and sisters, make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble, and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
24/8/16 Your Nation My Eternity
Many words have been spoken over your life, some past, some present and yet many are future words, which seem to stand just out of your grasp as they seem so far away on the horizon of time.
As we move through this season of quickening in my spirit, those prophetic promises are coming into your grasp now. Do not see with your eyes of flesh for they will remain far from you, reach out in my spirit and your hands will be filled with my treasure, for you are my anointed one for this season.
Know that you carry my heart and my Spirit to release a new wave of tsunami Fire upon this Earth that will carry your Nation into my Eternity.
(NIV) Psalm 145: 13-14
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion endures through all generations.
The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises
and faithful in all he does.
The Lord upholds all who fall
and lifts up all who are bowed down.
(NIV) 2 Corinthians 1:20-22
For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God. Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.
(NIV) 1 Peter 2: 9-10
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
25/8/16 Open Pathways
My beloved sons and daughters, where there has been hesitation, and even confusion in your life, even your vision, for the path ahead, has been dulled by the circumstances surrounding you.
I am removing from your eyes the scales that the enemy has brought around you by his lies and deceit, to keep you fumbling in the dark.
I am releasing to you fresh clarity of Spiritual Sight, that will see through the plans and purposes of the enemy, you will see clearly into the lives of those around you and in my Spirit you will be able to speak directly to the woundings and call them out in my name.
I am revealing to you, the open pathways that I have ordained for your life from the very beginning of time. Walk in my footsteps for I have walked this path before you, so be assured and walk in boldness and confidence, for I am with you all the days of your life.
(NIV) Acts 9: 17-19
Then Ananias went to the house and entered it. Placing his hands on Saul, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord—Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here—has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” Immediately, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and he could see again. He got up and was baptized, and after taking some food, he regained his strength.
(NIV) Psalm 16: 11
You make known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
(NIV) Matthew 10: 7-8
As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.
26/8/16 My Gaze Is Upon You
My beloved, how I hold you in my gaze, I look upon the face I love and my heart dances within me.
You have such beauty none other can compare; I want to show you off to all. You hold a light, a living beacon to this world; it attracts those hungry to encompass the delights of your heart.
You fill me with joy as I watch you grow, I delight in hearing the sound of your laughter, as you come and meet me in the secret place. I send you my love letters, and I smell the aroma of your fragrance in every word of love you lift to my throne.
You are my Bride, My Church.
(NIV) Isaiah 60: 1-3
“Arise, shine, for your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.
See, darkness covers the earth
and thick darkness is over the peoples,
but the Lord rises upon you
and his glory appears over you.
Nations will come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
(NIV) Song of Songs 4: 9-10
You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride;
you have stolen my heart
with one glance of your eyes,
with one jewel of your necklace.
How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much more pleasing is your love than wine,
and the fragrance of your perfume
more than any spice!
(NIV) Isaiah 45; 2-3
I will go before you
and will level the mountains;
I will break down gates of bronze
and cut through bars of iron.
I will give you hidden treasures,
riches stored in secret places,
so that you may know that I am the Lord,
the God of Israel, who summons you by name.
29/8/16 It’s time for MY Hidden Torch Bearers to Arise
It’s time for My hidden torch bearers to arise and lift high the light I have given them. This light is so bright and so warm, that it will pierce the darkest places and bring people into this great arising of my light.
These torchbearers are called to a place of leadership in a new movement of MY Kingdom. There will be a release into the knowledge of the Holy Spirit with fresh words of knowledge and a deeper understanding of your relationship with Holy Spirit.
My torch bearers will bring many into a deep understanding and acceptance of the Spirit and will inspire many.
At this point many feel overlooked, unrecognised or unaccepted, some have fallen away completely, or feel they have no place in the current expression of church. But, it’s time to shake off disappointment, and rise up, because they are not overlooked, unaccepted or unrecognised by ME. I have kept you hidden for this time, like undercover SAS crack troops, out of sight of the enemy, ready for this moment in time.
Arise and shine MY Torchbearers, arise and shine!
Some of you are completely unaware of what you carry, and will be surprised by all that I have placed within YOU.
(NIV) Isaiah 45: 2-3
I will go before you
and will level the mountains;
I will break down gates of bronze
and cut through bars of iron.
I will give you hidden treasures,
riches stored in secret places,
so that you may know that I am the Lord,
the God of Israel, who summons you by name.
(NIV) 1 Thessalonians 1: 4-6
For we know, brothers and sisters loved by God, that he has chosen you, because our gospel came to you not simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake. You became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you welcomed the message in the midst of severe suffering with the joy given by the Holy Spirit.
(NIV) Isaiah 60: 1-3
“Arise, shine, for your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.
See, darkness covers the earth
and thick darkness is over the peoples,
but the Lord rises upon you
and his glory appears over you.
Nations will come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
30/8/16 Aliens and Foreigners
Beloved, why do you find it strange when you are not accepted by the world and those around you?
I set my call upon your life. Come out from the midst and be Holy. Set apart for Me. Set apart to be with Me. Set apart that My glory may shine, not only on you, but through you.
You are different.
I never intended that you would fit in, but that you would stand out and stand up for righteousness and truth. You are My plumb line. I called you as one to set the standards for others to follow. Do not be led around by the desires of the world, or follow as mere sheep. Stand up for My Kingdom of light, life and truth.
(NIV) John 15: 18-20
“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.
(NIV) 1 John 2: 15-17
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.
(NIV) 1 John 3: 1-3
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.
31/8/16 Thankfulness
Beloved, thankfulness is the key to many of the doors you have been trying to shove open.
Quit grumbling and complaining, because things have not happened in the manner you have wanted. I ask you to be thankful, for my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are my ways your ways.
For some I have kept you from going the wrong way and ending up on the wrong path. For others, those relationships would have taken you away from me. I am your loving and kind Father and I only want the best for each one of you.
Be thankful today that I have my eye on you. Know that if I have shut one door for you, I will open an even better one and lead you into my very best for your life. Remember that all things work together for good for those who love me and are called according to my purposes.
(NIV) Philippians 2: 13-15
for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.
Do everything without grumbling or arguing,so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky
(NIV) Philippians 4:4-7
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
(NIV) 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
